      2009 in DC? I can't easily find a record of that conference.

  • The situation right now is dismal
  • private fork of the code if they want to make any modifications
  • getting a stable, maintained release of this 0.3 incarnation out the door
  • right now the bottleneck is on the maintenance side
  • it would be really nice to see deliverance moving to some dcvs
  • Deliverance tries to solve a problem that very few people have: styling an existing site without having to touch it
  • Plone where you would need hundreds of hours of work of skilled people to do a full styling
  • if you use Deliverance you still need to theme your Plone site
  • a lot of interest in Deliverance
  • XDV, since that is easier to deploy in non-Python environments
  • Deliverance + a proxy is obviously possible
  • legacy systems
  • "shrink-wrapped" solutions that they can't style
  • All my Plone projects these days use Deliverance or XDV
  • turn off most Plone stylesheets
  • custom stylesheet to augment the designer's styles
  • include the Plone authoring stylesheets more or less intact
  • new to Plone
  • teaching theming
  • new to Plone theming
  • comprehension and productivity
  • With Deliverance/XDV, I can get people who understand HTML + CSS to be productive with Plone
  • a *huge* win
  • hard to set it all up
  • soluble
  • stable 0.3 release out is of utmost importance
  • revisit the option of moving it to a different repository later
  • it only takes a very little bit of stop energy to get someone to go away
  • I hereby bestow upon Ethan the title of Maintainer
  • release now, and figure out code location etc later
  • DVCS's genuinely useful for including people in a development process
  • get git working with the major IDEs
  • I'd be looking at fewer man pages with hg than with git

Of babies and bathwater (or: Why I love the Zope Component Architecture) - Martin Aspeli - 0 views

  • In defence of one of the great Python frameworks of the past decade
  • ZCA rocks. It's an incredibly advanced and powerful way to build software
  • ZCA adds complexity. It demands that you swallow its core concepts up front (interfaces, adapters, utilities, events) and get to know them pretty well
  • people can do crazy things, usually doing as much harm as good
  • elegant frameworks like BFG or Pylons
  • That doesn't mean the ZCA is right for all situations
  • learning to use the ZCA effectively is a bit like learning a new programming language on top of Python. You need to "get" those concepts
  • For the ZCA itself, there is clearly an opportunity right now to evolve
  • My personal wish-list
  • advice for projects, such as Plone, that use the ZCA for extensibility and inversion-of-control
  • Don't let the ZCA be the first API that people see
  • don't assume everyone has yet reached ZCA mastery
  • ZCA as a building block
  • BFG does this very well
    • Graham Perrin
  • We're trying to do something similar with Dexterity and the ecosystem of tools around it
  • The same will hopefully be true for other technologies as we move towards Plone 5
  • improved integrator learning curve
